The Scorpion lyrics

My life, is everything

That feeds my thirst, that causes sin

My wants, are all I care

No shame and guilt, there's nothing there

Look deep, into my face

I sell deceit, without a trace

Fear not, what I can do

Unless you, want it done to you, oh-ohhh!

[Solo - Mustaine]

As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting

I will, tell you what you want to hear and not mean anything

Then I, treat you like a dog, as I shoot my venom in

You pretend you didn't know, that I am a scorpion, oh

My self, I'm centered in

There's nothing else, there's never been

And I dream, to be left alone

With the sadness, the madness of my own

Look deep, into my soul

It's black as coal, like a bullet hole

Fear not, get off your knees

There's no defense, you'll do what I please, oh-oh!

[Solo - Mustaine]

As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting

I will, tell you what you want to hear and not mean anything

Then I treat you like a dog, as I shoot my venom in

You pretend you didn't know, that I am a scorpion, ohhh!

[Solo - Mustaine]

As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting

I will, tell you what you want to hear and not mean anything

I will, treat you like a dog as I shoot my venom in

'Cause you knew all along I am a scorpion, yeah!

My lies, to reach the shore

I aggrandize, and nothing more

My hopes, to steal away

All that you love, I'll soon betray

Look deep, into my past

The pain I feel, is unsurpassed

I'm not, a lowly scorpion

I'm so much worse; I'm the fall of man
